When the steps won't reach the ground because the campsite is slopped too much in one direction or another, here's a simple solution that may help. I called MorRyde and ordered a set of foot insert...

The camper was sitting on level ground, on asphalt. The steps are definitely not leveled but extremely high, ... agree. The photo was taken to show how it can be done. Disregard the fact the steps are already on level ground and pointed upward.
Imagine the same set-up though, if that door was along a steep slope where the inserted feet would not reach the ground. By adding the support going straight down, the support could extend downward another couple feet easily, thus providing support to the steps so they are not dangling in the air.
Agree... I've not come up with a viable solution for when the steps are too long and the slope outside the door is uphill, without digging a hole for the feet to lower into. (I'm still working on that scenario). But, for the dangling, hanging in the air, feet aren't long enough, and you are out of wood blocks to put under the feet to support them, this is an alternative.
By the way, thinking about this, you could do the same thing with a 2x4. Just drill holes all the way through ever inch apart. Then you could made a support as long as you want. The goal is to keep the steps from dangling in mid air with no support under them.
